In 1914, Elgar was introduced to
Alfred Clarke , the managing director of the Gramophone Company Ltd (His Master's Voice). This meeting marked the beginning of a relationship which was to last the rest of Elgar's life and which left to posterity Elgar's own interpretation of most of his orchestral music and live performances of some of his vocal works. Over the next eight weeks, Malcolm Ruthven uses these recordings, and the correspondence between
Elgar and the Gramophone Company, to trace the development of a long and fruitful association.
